paroles de chanson By the Sea - Angela Lansbury , Len Cariou

Oh, Mr. Todd, I'm so happy
I could eat you up I really could
You know what I'd like to do Mr. Todd
What I dream
If the business stays as good
Where I'd like to go
In a year or so
Don't you want to know?
(Sweeney, spoken) Of course.
Do you really want to know?
(Sweeney, spoken) Yes, yes, I do, I do
By the sea Mr. Todd, that's the life I covet
By the sea, Mr. Todd
Ooh I know you'd love it
You and me, Mr. T, we could be alone
In a house what we'd almost own
Down by the sea
(Todd) Anything you say
Wouldn't that be smashing?
With the sea at our gate we'll have kippered herring
What was come to us straight from the Straights of Bering
Everynight in the kick, when we're through our kippers
I'll be there slipping off your slippers
By the sea
With the fishies splashing
By the sea
Wouldn't that be smashing
Down by the sea
(Todd) Anything you say, anything you say
I can see us waking
The breakers breaking,
The seagulls squawking
Hoo-hoo
I'll do me baking, then I'll go walking
With you-hoo you-hoo
I'll warm me bones on the esplanade
Have tea and scones with me gay young blade
Then I'll knit a sweater
While you write a letter
Unless we've got better to do-hoo
(Todd) Anything you say
Think how snug it will be underneath our flannel
When it's just you and me and the English channel
In our cozy retreat kept all neat and tidy
We'll have chums over every Friday
By the sea
(Todd) Anything you say
Don't you love the weather?
By the sea
We'll grow old together
By the seaside, hoo-hoo
By the beautiful sea
(Spoken) Oh, I can see us now
In our bathing dresses
You in a nice navy and me... stripes perhaps
It'll be so quiet
That who'll come by it?
Except a seagull
Hoo-hoo
We shouldn't try it, though
Till it's legal for two-hoo
But a seaside wedding could be devised
Me rumpled bedding legitimized
Me eyelids will flutter
I'll turn into butter
The moment I mutter I do-hoo
By the sea, in our nest
We could share our kippers
With the odd-paying guests from the weekend trippers
Have a nice, sunny sweet for the guests to rest in
Now and then you could do the guest in
By the sea
Married nice and proper
By the sea
Bring along your chopper
To the seaside hoo-hoo
To the beautiful sea
